Abstract

A new Apicotermitinae genus and speciesEchinotermesbiribais described from workers collected on the Andean-Amazon Piedmont in Colombia and Peru. The enteric valve armature ofEchinotermesbiribaCastro & Scheffrahn,gen. et sp. n.is a remarkably diagnostic character. A Bayesian phylogenetic analysis using the COI gene and including all other Neotropical Apicotermitinae genera, supports the new genus as a distinct terminal.
